The game was always going to be timed exclusive, MS moneyhatted it into being fully exclusives hence Zampellas disappointment. That's the issue

This is logic no one here ever seems to discuss, but it's a great point. Instead it's all about how the final March numbers were lower than PS4. Imagine what they'd have been without Titanfall, then. Imagine the months prior when less people bought the consoles in anticipation of Titanfall. I got mine in February and I only got this console because it was the next gen console with Titanfall.

I don't think it was pointless, because without Titanfall the X1 would've lagged even further in sales. You can't just look at March numbers. Many people bought the X1 before March in anticipation for Titanfall.

Zampella "disappointment" would be selling the IP to EA to make the game happen.

He is just calming deranged angry fans by saying disappointment. The game was gonna get canned.

It got 1st party treatment and came out with a bang. I hope MS moneyhatts more so the X1 library expands and cause more issues.

I don't have issues with Sony moneyhatting Japanese games why should you with MS?

So you're saying Zampellas lied? Lol. You think that Keigly is more informed than the man behind the game?

He straight up said it was always exclusive at launch (we now know that this was due to MS helping out). MS paid to have the PS version cancelled, that's the issue, not the fact that it was supposed to be timed (that was completely reasonable) 

What Japanese games has Sony moneyhatted? Last I checked Japanese devs often ignore the Xbox because it's irrelevent, not because Sony paid the.

"It has been revealed in Geff’s final hour of titanfall, that Sony had multiple opportunities  to  get the game on their platform but failed to due so, and Microsoft funded the rest of the games development." Geoff's final hour.

You're dropping titans on your feet homie.

Zampella would be a dummy to say that he agreed to exclusivity if he ever wanted to create a mega selling franchise.

We're talking about a community that doesn't waste a chance to make petition to bring competition exclusives to their console. Or bother devs about their games. Zampella got called traitor on his tweeter page.

This is exactly what I was thinking too. The game is good, but not a GOTG. I'm tired too about people claiming this game is so perfect that it can outmatch Jesus' second coming. I'm all for people liking it, but in my opinion the game is not that good. We have just started this generation, there will be games that can blow this one out of the water.

I forgot who but someone has the sig that explains VGC logic on this matter perfectly.

All those things you listed would be moneyhatting from Company A, but being an awesome company funding awesome games from Company B.

Just look at the replies from the kangaroo dude. Says Sony isn't moneyhatting to keep games exclusive because they actually fund development. You show him MS funded Titanfall development and yet it's still wrong that they kept the game from the competition. It's funny.

So just to be clear, you're telling me that Keigly knows more than Zampella? Or that Zampella lied? Because either one of those is absurd.

As I said before, yes MS funded the fame hence it's timed exclusiveness, that's reasonable since it was probably what they agreed on. But then MS moneyhatted it into being a full exclusives (or rather moneyhatted it to keep it of PS consoles). That's where the problem lies
